The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published an Opinion following the notification by the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority, Finansinspektionen, of its intention to extend for another two-year period a measure originally introduced in 2018 to ensure that banks remain resilient and can withstand a potentially severe downturn in the housing market without restricting the supply of credit.
